In summary, some common introductory level questions in engineering physics include: What is the difference between mechanics and thermodynamics? How do you calculate the forces acting on an object? What is the concept of work and energy? How does electricity and magnetism relate to each other? What is the principle of conservation of energy? How do you calculate the velocity and acceleration of an object? What is the difference between potential and kinetic energy? What are the fundamental laws of thermodynamics? These questions provide a basic understanding of the key principles and concepts in engineering physics.

Hi! I'm an undergrad (finishing up, last semester), whoo! I decided to get an account because I'm studying for a proficiency test and think this place would be useful to answer some questions I have regarding problems. No doubt they can be solved here, they are just intro-level questions (although they are intro the questions match the difficulty of the engineering level physics course I took, which I found strange).

Welcome to the PF. :smile:

If you have schoolwork type questions, please post in the Homework Help forums, and fill out the Homework Help Template that you are provided when starting a new thread in the schoolwork forums. Please be sure to fill out the sections on the Relevant Equations, and show your Attempt at a Solution. If you do that, you will get good tutorial help on your schoolwork questions here.

If you have a technical question about your work, or general technical questions, do a forum search to see if it has been discussed already, and if not, start a new thread in the appropriate technical forum. Please always post links to the reading you have been doing about your question -- that helps us to see where you are in your exploration of the subject.

There is more helpful info for how to post, etc., at the top of the page, under INFO, Help/How-To. Enjoy! :smile:
